Daqin arrests alchemists, what does it matter to me as a qi refiner?

Chapter 47
Langya County.

The ancient Langya Terrace still stands by the sea. After nearly 500 years of wind and rain, the originally flat Langya Terrace has begun to collapse, and the middle part has been eroded by rainwater and covered by plants.

From a distance, it no longer looks like a high platform, but like two ordinary earth mountains side by side.

Langya Terrace is adjacent to the sea on three sides, and only one side is connected to the land.It is rumored that Langya Terrace was cast by gods and men in ancient times. Later, King Goujian of Yue took a rest and set aside stones to record his achievements.Later, Taigong Wang worshiped the gods of the four seasons here.

Today, the stone used by King Goujian of Yue to record his merits has disappeared, and the bronze flags left by Taigong Wang when he worshiped the gods of the four seasons have also disappeared.

Only the waves of the East China Sea remain, year after year, day after day, unchanged from ancient times.

This is the so-called land of the gods, and it is not allowed to go on stage unless it is a sacrifice to the heaven and the earth.

And if you want to praise Langyatai, it is not enough to destroy the enemy's country, and it is not qualified.

Therefore, Langya Terrace has been abandoned for hundreds of years since Taigongwang worshiped it.

However, at this moment, on the Langya Terrace where no one has stepped foot for hundreds of years, there is a young man in a wide robe and sleeves standing.

The young man stood quietly at the top of Langya Terrace, the sea breeze passed by him, his sleeves fluttered, as if he would be blown away by the sea breeze in the next second.

This young man is none other than Qin Tian.

It has been seven days since he left Yunmeng Mountain.

Spanning more than [-] miles in seven days is undoubtedly impossible for the people of Qin.However, for Qin Tian, ​​it was a trip to visit mountains and rivers.

If it wasn't for the delay on the road, he would be able to arrive in two days at most.

The 2000-mile journey did not make Qin Tian look tired. He quietly stared at the Langya stage with his hands behind his back.

After a long time, he finally opened his mouth with a sigh.

"The so-called harmony between man and nature, although there are only four simple words, there are endless profound meanings hidden in it."

His gaze fell on two groups of ants-like people under Langya Terrace.

Langya Tower is built on Langya Mountain. Looking down from the top of the platform, people on the ground are indeed as small as ants.However, ants are not just visual, they also have other meanings.

One of the two groups of ants is slightly larger, with thousands of individuals.These people were burdened with stones, lined up on the ground like ants, there were soldiers watching along the way, and the scolding was even heard on Langya Terrace.

This is Tuxian, who is building the stone road under Langya Terrace under the supervision of soldiers.

In ancient times, there was a lack of equipment and tools, even iron tools.The stones on the disciples' backs seemed to weigh a hundred or ten kilograms each. They were like ants, struggling to carry the weight.

From time to time, some disciples lost their balance because of lack of strength or because they were dizzy from being exposed to the sun. They were knocked to the ground by rocks with a loud thud, and blood spattered everywhere.

The only reaction of the guarding soldiers was to order the other disciples to continue carrying the bloody stone and move forward.

Qin Tian shook his head slightly, his eyes fell on another small group of ants.

The size of this group of people is much smaller than that of Tu Xian, and they are not young and strong. At a glance, they may be old people with white heads or young children.

At this time, they are kneeling on the ground devoutly and mournfully, and are bowing respectfully to Langyatai.

This is praying for rain.

Although Langya County is located on the seaside, it is short of water all year round.

This is not due to the lack of rainfall, but because Langya County is affected by sea tides all year round, and the fields are often invaded by salt and alkali, and the yield is damaged.Therefore, every year, the fields are flooded with spring rain, which is called washing salt.

However, this spring, Langya County was hit by a severe drought, and it was impossible to wash the salt, not to mention, it was impossible to even sow seeds at this moment.

Originally, this was nothing. Langya planted millet, and millet was originally sown at the turn of spring and summer.If there is a drought in spring, immediately send civilians to repair the canals and divert water from Yishui to irrigate them.Although the matter of washing salt is still impossible, and production reduction is a foregone conclusion, it will not be as it is now, and even planting seeds cannot be done.

"The great change in the world is not just a change in climate, but also a disturbance in people's hearts!"

"This, they complement each other!"

Qin Tian shook his head slightly.

The severe drought in Langya County was a natural and man-made disaster.

As a time traveler, Qin Tian knew that there were three famous Little Ice Ages in Chinese history.

Three Kingdoms, late Song Dynasty, late Ming Dynasty!

Needless to say, the Three Kingdoms is also a great struggle in the world.At the end of the Song Dynasty and the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was the alien race who went south, and the horses stepped into the Central Plains.

The Qin Dynasty was the beginning of the previous Little Ice Age. At this time, the climate was extremely warm, and it can even be described as hot.

The severe drought in Langya County this year is due to this incident. If there is a severe drought in Langya County, there will be severe floods in the south of the Yangtze River.

Langya County did not repair the canals, so it was impossible to sow seeds.The reason why the people of Langya County did not go to repair the canal was because the young and strong people were just envy, and the stone road was being built at this time.

This stone path was obviously prepared for the first emperor Langyatai to praise his achievements, and only to welcome the arrival of the first emperor.

In addition to this stone road, a new palace was also built in Langya County, which was naturally also to prepare for the arrival of the First Emperor!
However, one cannot criticize the First Emperor's tour. After all, Qin Tian had seen a lot of chaos along the way.

It has only been eight years since Qin ruled the world, and it was impossible for the people of the six countries to return to their hearts in eight years.Not to mention Daqin, even future generations cannot do it in such a short period of time.

Although the world is full of Qin officials at this moment, these Qin officials who come from meritorious soldiers in the army are mixed.

There are benevolent and philanthropic people like an army, who regard Chu people as their own people, and personally lead the people in the countryside of Chu to open rice fields, plant mulberry and hemp, and promote education, so the Chu people in Yunmeng County return to their hearts.

There are also cruel and vicious people who regard the people under their rule as enemies. Villagers have to apply in advance when they go to the mountains to collect firewood.

However, the first emperor traveled all the way to the east, dismissing these cruel officials all the way, rehabilitating unjust prisons, and wherever he went, there were signs of great governance.

However, even if the first emperor used the opportunity of the east tour to inspect the world, if this continues, the disintegration of Qin will not be spared.

Just because, in the Age of Dharma Ending, not only the laws of heaven and earth are in chaos, but also the rituals and music in the human world are broken down!
In Qin Dynasty, there were corrupt criminals for the first time, and corrupt people were rampant, and the tallest one had already mixed into the position of prime minister.

It was Li Si who was building a palace for the First Emperor in Langya County at this time.

And history has proved that the more the end of the world, the more corrupt criminals.The reason is because people's hearts are uneasy.

"When the people are in chaos, there may be no harvest in Langya County, and the people's hearts may be in chaos. However, the first emperor praises the stone and tours the world, and it can calm the hearts of the world."

"It's hard to say whether Langya is a blessing or a disaster."

"That's it."

Qin Tian regained his composure on his face.

He was a liberal arts student before time travelling, and he had read a lot of historical knowledge, so he couldn't help but use it to prove it.

But it's just expressing emotion, after all, his status is already different now.

"Since I am already a person outside the world, I don't need to worry about the first emperor."

"But here, it seems that there is something I'm looking for."

His eyes fell on the group of villagers praying for rain under Langya Terrace.

Praying for rain requires offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, and offering sacrifices to heaven and earth requires three animals.

The villagers were not qualified to use the three ritual animals and could only use other things instead.

And Qin Tian was interested in their sacrifices.

It was a little snake.

One, a snow-white snake!
